Constantly amazes me how delusional some people are. Imagine a scenario where Harry Maguire signed. He would undoubtedly be one of the best players in the division but you'd have quite a few people saying how useless he was. See also the transfer fees that we expect to receive for our players. Again, a terrible example. Maguire is a proven Premier League and international footballer, what is Cantwell? I'm not comparing the 2. I'm trying to show how some people would react.

I would take Cantwell in a heartbeat.

Cantwell's career has been a bit of a car crash. He's 26, and people are still waiting for him to produce something
Not sure why anyone would touch him with a barge pole. A bit of initial buzz followed by disappointment after disappointment. Not sure he'd strengthen too many Champ clubs, even divorcing him from his apparently questionable attitude.

He's looked shite in the Scottish league though mate so I'm not sure the championship is the right environment for him. I watch Rangers quite a lot and I wouldn't say he looked shite at all. Not seen him since he left England but he looked like he could fulfil a similar sort of role to Cundle to me when he played for Norwich. Had a good engine covered a lot of ground not sure about end product. Just run a football club not a social engineering project. If we aren’t interested that’s fine provided it’s a football decision.

Did Gibson and Cantwell play together at Norwich? Not sure if that may help!

Yep, the type of manager driven mistake we used to make pre Jared and hopefully the type we miss out on post Jared. You'd think Walters would be very heavily character driven given his own career and the managers he's worked under and you'd expect the same of Darnbrough given his early days under Dychey. I have a lot of worries with those two at the helm, but player character of any incomings isn't one of them.

Refuse to play to get a transfer. Get sacked for stealing a teammates property no problem. Character eh??

So what's going to happen today on the Transfer thread!, will we announce a new signing?, will Bayern swim another 150 lengths? (solid effort btw).
We announced Vidigal and Chiquinho with the third kit i think... so wonder if we might be lining that up for a Friday announcement?

Any truth is Sam Gallagher swap for Baker? Heard some mumours and makes sense with them signing a forward today…

It's the fact he spams every single thread with rubbish and when he gets shown proof that whatever point he has made happens to be wrong..he gets abusive. If it was one or two people pulling him up about it then it's no big deal..but numerous people have pulled him up on it and it's just a bit pathetic. You have to scroll through 15 of his posts each page to actually find a comment that isn'r from him. exactky. I come in to look at transfer updates and it’s full of his argumentative provocative nonsense. There are a lot but I actually read all comments and respond if I feel the need without first looking at who posted them. I think that helps to make an unbiased judgement on comments. A lot of his posts I am in agreement with and they are usually relevant. I must admit though sometimes he argues for the sake of argument and you get to realise without looking who has posted the original when the argument goes into two or three pages.

Didn’t realise that Shaqiri was a knob Arnie was just a bit of a child upstairs not a knob Nzonzi was just a bit sulky sometimes not a knob And the thing is all of the above had huge talent and weren’t bell ends in a nasty way in the changing room They were team players and actually cared Cantwell is all about him In his own mind he’s the best and everyone else is wank Like the quick kid at school who won’t pass and then waves his arms when no one passes to him I loved Arnie and Fonz lots but they were both a pair of cunts and it’s what made them even more endearing for me. 🤣 This is my take too. They were 100% knobs…. But they were OUR knobs 😂

I’d actually take a punt on Cantwell. Could provide cover for Bae, could play as an 8, can play as a 10. Bit of a knob but so were Arnie, Nzonzi, Shaqiri. A big Jon arm round the shoulder might unlock his former form! Is that a joke? You really think a player of Cantwell's standing would come to Stoke as back up?

What i've never got with Gallagher is whenever Blackburn are on tv and he starts the pundits before the game all rave about him and say he is the player to watch in that game (well before the Szmodics run anyway). But i've never actually seen him do much. I know he is a handful but so is a sack of spuds.

Implication here that would indicate Stansfield would be even more surplus to requirements?
